Ex. 1: Reflectance spectra collected over 190–1000nm wavelength range for an amorphous silicon film (a-Si) on an oxidized silicon substrate (SiO 2 /Si-Sub) plus the n(λ) and k(λ) spectra of the a-Si film. The film thickness was found to be 1147nm.
Refraction at interface. Many materials have a well-characterized refractive index, but these indices often depend strongly upon the frequency of light, causing optical dispersion.
Silicon crystallizes in a diamond cubic crystal structure by forming sp 3 hybrid orbitals. [48] A silicon atom has fourteen electrons. In the ground state, they are arranged in the electron configuration [Ne]3s 2 3p 2. Of these, four are valence electrons, occupying the 3s orbital and two of the 3p orbitals.
For layered and finite media, according to the CIE, [citation needed] reflectivity is distinguished from reflectance by the fact that reflectivity is a value that applies to thick reflecting objects. [6] When reflection occurs from thin layers of material, internal reflection effects can cause the reflectance to vary with surface thickness.
The method or technique of infrared spectroscopy is conducted with an instrument called an infrared spectrometer (or spectrophotometer) which produces an infrared spectrum. An IR spectrum can be visualized in a graph of infrared light absorbance (or transmittance ) on the vertical axis vs. frequency , wavenumber or wavelength on the horizontal ...
If R 1 represents a clean freshly prepared surface (e.g., after a cleavage in vacuum) and R 2 the same sample after the exposure to hydrogen or oxygen contaminants, the ΔR/R spectrum can be related to features of the clean surface (e.g., surface states); [2] if R 1 is the reflectivity spectrum of a sample covered by an organic film (even if ...
Time-resolved simulation of a pulse reflecting from a Bragg mirror. A distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) is a reflector used in waveguides, such as optical fibers.It is a structure formed from multiple layers of alternating materials with different refractive index, or by periodic variation of some characteristic (such as height) of a dielectric waveguide, resulting in periodic variation in the ...
Electronic: Transitions in electron energy levels within the atom (e.g., pigments). These transitions are typically in the ultraviolet (UV) and/or visible portions of the spectrum. Vibrational: Resonance in atomic/molecular vibrational modes. These transitions are typically in the infrared portion of the spectrum.
